That is all I can afford for now.

Trying to rebuild but it will take time.


Hi mate. I'm also in the UK so I'm in similar territory. The bold bit above? That's only for a non contested divorce which your WW can't ask for until the 2 years of separation are up or after 1 year if you agree to the D. If she wants a D before that then it is a contested divorce which is expensive not just for you but for her as well. Not sure if either your WW or you would be eligible for legal aid or not. Perhaps worth checking that out.

On a side note it doesn't matter if her PA started before or after your 'separation'. You are still married and she is still having an A. You could divorce her tomorrow on those grounds and the court would immediately grant you a D. I know that's not your objective here but worth bearing in mind.
